- Electrified
- |
- Nov 07, 2020

Children's books are often seen as the poor relation of literature. But children are just as demanding as adult readers, if not more so. I should know. I'm a children's writer myself.

- Love
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Definitely I love women, I love being around women, I find them incredible and intoxicating, and I've never had that feeling I get with women with a man.
- Myself
- |

I have a pathological fear of being on my own. When I'm with my own thoughts, I start to unravel myself, and I start to think really dark thoughts, self-destructive thoughts.

- I Was Born
- |

I am a huge fan of 'Doctor Who.'
- Failure
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I don't have a fear factor. Well, not much of one. And I'm willing to risk quite a lot - as a comedian, you're always risking a lot. You're risking failure, especially if you're improvising and going on TV shows trying to make comedy out of thin air. That is quite a risky business.
- People

- Nov 07, 2020
I've noticed that once you leave London you do kind of become a bit more famous. People in London are a bit too cool for school. It's not so unusual to see someone from London in the street. But outside of London people are a bit more excited to see you and come out and support you.

- Nov 07, 2020
I don't think comedy is necessarily an attack. It's finding humour in life. I don't think if you're making a joke about something you're automatically demeaning it.
- Life
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I still enjoy my life, and I feel like I've achieved enough things that if I never did anything again, I'd feel confident that I'd still have made my mark in some way. But maybe the self-loathing bit is the element that makes you strive for more. Makes you strive to be better.

- Hard Work
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It can be difficult to be subtle and not cartoony in prosthetics. But when you see characters like Bubbles and Desiree from 'Little Britain' on screen, it makes all the hard work worth it. It's such fun watching those transformations.
- Process
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
There's something about being a comedian that means you have to not be scared of failing because failing is part of the process.
- Politics
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I can't see why anyone would want to be in politics because you get so much criticism.
- Childhood
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I had a very happy childhood, but I wasn't that happy a child. I liked being alone and creating characters and voices. I think that's when your creativity is developed, when you're young. I liked the world of the imagination because it was an easy place to go to.
- Downstairs
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I used to have a silk dressing gown an uncle bought in Japan and when I came downstairs in it, my dad used to call me Davinia. There was never embarrassment about that kind of thing. My sister used to dress me up a lot. She thought I was a little doll.

- Nov 07, 2020
It's a weird thing because I've been single at the time when I've been successful. That's good and bad. Good, because you meet lots of people, bad because your privacy is infringed, so it's harder to develop things.
- Good

- Nov 07, 2020
The one good thing about our school was the Cadets; I chose to be in the Navy, purely for the sailor's outfit. A pity we had to give them back.
- Culture
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
We sort of expect to see men in women's clothes. It's part of our culture. The key thing is, it has to be done quite badly.
- Music
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
There's a sort of magic and music to comedy. Some words, some numbers even, are funnier than others. A Caramac bar, for instance, is funnier than a Milky Way.
- Know

- Nov 07, 2020
I don't know what I'll be like when I'm 60. I already have the traits of a retired gentleman.

- Person
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's easier not to make a particular joke in case it offends. But every joke will offend someone, and I've always believed that the audience is bigger than one person. The danger is that things will become bland.
- Internet
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
TV has lost a lot of its self-confidence as its power has been eroded by the internet.
- Emotional
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I love telling stories. I love the intimacy between the writer and reader. When you write sketches it's over in two minutes. When you write a book the characters have to have a bit of emotional depth.
- Life

- Nov 07, 2020
I just want to be happy, have kids, enjoy my life, help others and create some good work.
- Important

It's important when you're married not to forget those things you used to do when you were trying to get her to marry you. You can't send flowers and buy gifts then, when you're married, say, 'Right, get my tea on'. That doesn't go down well. So you've got to keep that level of interest going.
- Father
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I know some of my parents' friends think 'Little Britain' is in incredibly poor taste. But swimming the Channel? You can't really say anything negative about that, can you? There's nothing better than making your parents happy. The glee on my father's face that day was amazing.
- Me

- Nov 07, 2020
Sometimes you meet people who can't swim. And I always think: 'Oh my God, that's extraordinary.' For me, it's always been a treat... I just feel really happy in the water.
- Pain
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I was quite fat as a kid. And swimming is a sport you can enjoy whatever size you are. If you're fat, running is a pain. I'm not really built for running.
